Currently playing: too much stuff all at once in a nightmare rotation of "whenever I feel like it." Also slowly working on RetroAchievements stuff. retroachievements.org/user/suave0909 if anyone wants to follow me there or recommend games.

It'll be interesting to see what happens to PC games plans when it's become clear that the tech advancement for graphics cards has stalled if not stopped altogether. I remember Larian describing how they had to start changing designs on Div3 cause they couldn't assume more PC power in the future

26. Air Combat/Ace Combat This game marks my entry into Ace Combat as a franchise. This first entry has a bit of a tech demo vibe to it, but it's still fun through all the early growing pains and jank. Looking forward to the future. 7.5/10

25. Pokemon Black (RA) Yeah, this is still my favorite Pokemon gen. 9.5/10

24. Dead Rising 3 (main game & Overtime) Most of my thoughts are in an earlier, separate post, but to summarize, I enjoyed it despite feeling like the changes to make it more "digestible" for mass appeal detract from earlier entries' appeal. Related note, it's also too long imo. 7/10

significantly bigger than the last two while also being less clear, seemingly to "encourage" exploration. Again, I am enjoying what's here, but it does feel like this game got homogenized into sharing traits with other popular franchises under the guise of "making improvements."

Significantly less strict time limits, weapons that feel flat out broken (combo vehicles included), toning down the camp for a more "grounded" story, less bosses that are also easier, but they also give them the whole seven deadly sins thing to make it seem "thoughtful and deep." Also the map being-

This is nowhere close to a complete review since I'm not done yet, but Dead Rising 3 feels like the prime example of a new entry in a series being fundamentally changed for mass appeal. I'm enjoying it, but it feels like most friction has been sanded off to be as welcoming to newcomers as possible.

PlayStation is a completely rotten institution, incapable of delivering their own cynical, sanitized idea of what games should be. They’re a mindless creature, attacking & consuming the industry and should be put down. I look forward to their imminent implosion, good luck w/ PS6, you chucklefucks.

SE had 2-3 AAA games in a row not sell near expectations on Sony hardware. They want to signal being on other shit as hard as possible and a state of play is the worst place to do that. It’s very smart of SE, honestly.

23. Zone of the Enders Genuinely, why did they stop making these games? This game was a nice, short burst of awesome mecha that never feels like it drags. I already have ZoE 2nd Runner Remastered on Steam, so I'll be hopping into that soon. 9/10

22. Dead Rising 2 (no Overtime) Couldn't finish OT mode due to technical difficulties with x360ce. Overall thoughts on the game itself, I don't like Zombrex, but this is a massive improvement over the first game in every way. PC port not having native controller support sucks. 8/10

suave0909.bsky.social @suave0909.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
So I got through most of Dead Rising 2 on its PC port, but then the Xbox 360 controller emulator I was using broke, so I'm probably not gonna do Overtime Mode. But I did finish everything leading up to it, so I'll comment on that to my thread.

Bob is under the weather & I’ve been running on fucked sleep schedules with extremely uneven sleep for weeks so: - Bob is taking today off. - I’m starting the stream later than usual. - There’s a bit of stream setup that needs to be done too so I will be announcing it shortly before going live. 👍

Currently doing a round of inputs for Game of the Year categories and making some notes so I can more accurately describe some things come recording time and I am once again recommending that you play TR-49. It's like seven bucks on Steam and about six hours long, depending (it 𝘪𝘴 a puzzle game).

We did this already. It was called 'Stream Boss' and I was possibly the last human on earth to cut that feature from my stream layout cause I rarely fuck around with it. That was something like 5 years ago.

The only point of contact I've ever had with George Broussard was seeing him years ago bitching about how "college protests are stupid" and "kids weren't like that in his day" in the facebook comments of a mutual of mine who's a game dev legend. Dude is an absolute idiot.

Wanted to rewatch a little bit of Assassination Classroom. See it's on Netflix. After checking out the dub I switched to Japanese only to realize that they're using dubtitles, so I switched back. Then I realize that they aren't even real dubtitles. They're error ridden clanker slop. I hate it here.

Keep yelling at them, canceling PS+, and not buying anything from them. They wouldn't even say they are moving forward "cautiously" if they didn't see how this could poison the whole brand.
